Publisher Comments:This volume provides an authoritative edition of Dewey’s The Quest for Certainty: A Study of the Relation Between Knowledge and Action. The book is made up of the Gifford Lectures delivered April–May 1929 at the University of Edinburgh. Writing to Sidney Hook, Dewey described this work as “a criticism of philosophy as attempting to attain theoretical certainty.” In the Philosophical Review Max C. Otto later elaborated: “Mr. Dewey wanted, so far as lay in his power, to crumble into dust, once and for all, ‘the chief fortress of the classic philosophical tradition.” About the AuthorStephen Toulmin is Professor in the Community on Social Thought, University of Chicago.
